A combined Masters degree in Business Administration and International Business provides candidates with the opportunity of completing two internationally recognised and complementary degrees within one period of candidature. The MBA/MIB promotes both depth and breadth in the acquisition of contemporary knowledge and skills in core business disciplines with an international focus. Core studies are undertaken in finance, accounting, marketing, economics, international business, management ethics, people management and strategy, together with elective units chosen from a range of business disciplines. The program is suited to a wide range of interests, but is particularly relevant to those who plan a career in organisations that conduct business beyond a single domestic economy, for example careers with multinational enterprises, joint ventures, export oriented firms and public sector bodies involved in cross-border commercial issues.
